I've uploaded the ChromiumOS64 files to Amazon S3 online storage
cloud. If you use a download accelerator like prozilla, axel, or
SKDownloader (all Linux based), you can achieve download speeds of up
to 1 MegaBytes per second.

I have all prozilla, axel, and SKDownloader installed on my Fedora 11
x64 machine.

Examples:

1. Using prozilla to download chromiumos64. To install run "yum
install prozilla". Automatically opens 4 connections by default
without specifying extra arguments.

$ proz chromiumos64.vmdk.zip

2. Using axel to download chromiumos64. To install run "yum install
axel". Following example opens 10 connections.

$ axel -a -n 10 chromiumos64.vmdk.zip

3. Using SKDownloader. You need to install Java virtual machine (JVM).
With browser integration in Firefox, just right click on the
ChromiumOS64 download link and select "Download with SKDownloader".
